- If anyone's had salmonella before,
it's absolutely hell. - Like you're so...
Like people went to hospital,
and we went to play a set.
(relaxing music)
- Hi this is Marty,
and this is Billy,
and we're from Triple One.
And we're gonna tell you
a bunch of weird stories
that happened to us on tour.
Let's get it.
(relaxing music)
We went on tour to the UK and Germany.
We rocked up to Germany.
As we're walking into the venue,
they're already lining up.
This is before soundcheck.
We're going on at like 9 p.m.
This is like 6 p.m.,
and there's people lining up.
- With little UE Boom playing--
- UE Booms playing "Doozy,"
playing like, "Overflow."
Playing like, just the songs
and they're all like,
rapping along in like German accents
and like,
stuff like that.
Anyway, this dude walks up to me,
and he's like, "Marty!"
And he like pulls out,
out of nowhere--
like maybe they were in his pants,
or maybe they were like,
in his bum bag, or something--
And he pulls out these undies, these Supreme undies,
black beautiful fresh pair of undies.
And he's like, "I got these for you,
because in your Instagram Story,
two days ago,
you were running around in your undies
in your Airbnb.
And there was a hole in your undies.
So here's hole-less underwear.
Put these on."
And I was like, "Oh, thank you."
And I said,
"I'm gonna put them on for the set."
And then, so,
I went upstairs to the changing room,
put these undies on,
and I had fresh undies for the set.
Because I don't...
I pack very light.
And maybe two undies, two weeks.
Two undies, one per week.
- Those guys had also driven
eight hours from Poland.
- Yeah just to give...
- Just to give Marty his pair of undies. (laughs)
(claps)
- Yeah.
(relaxing music)
- Shouts to my mum,
for giving my whole family,
myself and Martin included,
salmonella for Christmas.
We were playing Force Festival, 2018?
19?
And I was at my family Christmas,
Martin come along.
He's come along like every one
of my Christmases.
And...
- And there was salmonella in the sal-o-mon.
(Billy laughing loudly)
- And anyways, so couple days later,
we start,
everyone starts to wake up in my family
really sore in the guts.
Both ends,
just going haywire as you can imagine.
- That end and this end. Pa-choo!
- And like, you know we sort of playin' it off
as maybe a bit of food poisoning.
It gets bad.
Starts to get really bad.
I have like, my uncle, my cousin,
both in hospital at this point.
Meanwhile, we're on the plane flying
to the first leg of the Force Festival.
- But like, we have salmonella, like--
- No, no, this is pre.
- Oh, this is--
- It's pronounced salmonella.
- Salmonella.
(Billy claps)
Like Thriller in Manila, salmonella.
(Billy laughs loudly)
- Anyway, so we're on the plane.
You know it's going out both ends, and we're--
- And we're sweaty.
- Yeah.
- And can't see, and like,
don't wanna open your eyes,
and everything is awful.
- And we had to play.
- Everything, like you just want it to stop.
And it just never does.
- And we go to lawn.
And this is the point,
at this point we're still thinking it's gastro.
I'm on the phone,
so there's 15 members of my family
all with the same thing.
Like, well obviously we've gotten sick.
Mid set, Martin's come up to me,
and he's just like,
"Bro, I think I'm gonna like,
completely like black out."
This is like,
if anyone's had salmonella before,
it's absolutely hell. - Like you're so...
Like people went to hospital,
and we went to play a set.
Like you get, like,
the like, contrast?
- It feels like...
it feels like your bone marrow
is crystallizing.
- Yeah.
- Whilst vomiting and shitting everywhere.
- And like, you can't eat anything.
So like three days straight,
all I ate was nothing.
And all we drank was...
heaps of Red Bull before we jumped on the stage.
Obviously to try and solve
the issue of being tired,
but that didn't help.
And you start seeing like black dots
in your vision and like...
- Yeah, it's no good.
- Yeah.
- So don't get salmonella before you go on tour,
it's no good.
- Yeah.
(relaxing music)
- D for Denzel Curry.
We played Listen Out,
just recently, and we...
It was our first set of the leg.
- Melbourne.
- Which was at Melbourne.
And there was a thunderstorm supposed
to be rolling through right as we're getting on.
Like two minutes before we've stepped foot
onto that stage, there was
an evacuation of the stage.
- But like, the winds were...
It was like, (making roaring sound)
And all the scaffolding was like blowing,
and then all the...
Everything like,
people thought the stage
was gonna like blow off, like literally.
That's why
they were evacuating it. - It was like,
"Get off the stage!"
And then it was like the, you know,
the formal, like,
"Evacuate, evacuate."
And like the sound guys, the lighting guys,
everyone's up,
everyone's standing on St Kilda beach
watching the stage going like...
Bending.
- Yeah.
- And um anyway, so we missed our set.
- (indistinct) - And we were really sad.
- Super upset.
Burning, go back to the artist room,
and I get stuck into the beers.
- And the liquor.
- Yeah.
And we go to watch Slowthai.
And by this time it's probably like 4:30,
so we're quite pissed.
- Like, not quite... - Like super upset.
Yeah. - Like a lot.
- It was, yeah.
It was messy.
- Anyway, as we're lining up,
these like, marshals from the event
like, run over to us
and we're like trying to like, order
and pass our ticket in.
And they walk over to us, and they're like,
"Denzel Curry just pulled out.
You guys need to get to the Atari stage
in five minutes.
Can you do it?"
And the only problem was with Connor,
you tell them about that part.
- We went, we went on together at this stage, and so...
we had to get ahold of Connor,
which we never can.
- He wandered into the festival.
Like, just like wandered in just,
into the crowd somewhere, into the mosh pit.
So we didn't know where he was.
- Yeah, so of course we're thinking,
"Oh, we're not gonna be able to do it.
We can't, we can't...
We won't be able to find Connor.
Literally call him, run downstairs,
try to round up all the troops.
Sprint down the stairs,
and there's Connor standing right in front
of our artist tent, so lucky.
We all go straight
into this van. - It was fate, yeah.
- And we're driving around the St Kilda beach,
and you can look down into the crowd.
And there was by this point
probably like 10 thousand people,
just like, all waiting for Denzel Curry.
And so we get right on to the back of the stage.
- We still can't walk properly.
- Yeah.
- Remember that, don't forget that point.
- So we're like, "Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh."
John Wall, who...
The organizer of the whole event,
gets on the stage
and he says, to the whole crowd,
"Hey everyone, Denzel Curry's just pulled out,
but Triple One is going to fill in."
- [Both] Boo!
- The whole crowd.
10 thousand people.
The noise of a boo, it's strong.
It hits you.
- It hurt my heart.
- And we (laughs), at which we sprint onstage,
play one song.
It was either gonna go good or bad.
And it went good.
- Very good. - And it was lucky.
- But it was very scary.
- It was very terrifying. - Then it was fine after that.
- Yeah.
- But like leading up to it,
it was funny feelings in...
Like butterflies in your tummy.
- And the best part of it,
Denzel Curry shouted us out
for filling his slot so, thanks.
- Yeah, at the Sydney show he was like,
"Shout out Triple One."
- That was a bonus, that was a bonus.
- And then we got to meet him as well.
Which was good like, interesting fun.
- Yeah, interesting fun.
(relaxing music)
- So we're flying back from Brisbane
on the YJ tour.
I'm sitting in the aisle seat.
And so is Connor, on the other aisle.
And he's gotten up and gone to the toilet.
He comes back and he sits down.
And he like, turns and looks at me
and he goes,
"Bill, you wouldn't believe
what just happened to me."
Food cart goes by me
and we're like, "Oh, real teaser,
I'll tell you after."
Food cart goes past and he stands up
and he's like, "I've got shit on my leg.
Yo, I've got shit on my leg."
And as he walked past, it was probably
like a 10 cent coin piece of poo on his leg.
He gets up, goes to the toilet,
obviously to like, wash it off.
Anyway he comes back and he explains
this whole story about how the first thing
that he went...
sorry, first time he'd gone to the toilet,
he was turning away and he like,
there was lots of turbulence this flight.
He's sort of like missed and hit the seat
and which he's pulled the toilet paper
out of the side to wipe the seat down,
but as he pulled the toilet paper,
the stick that holds the toilet paper roll in--
- Or the box, or the stick, or something.
- The stick.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Had gone into the toilet,
and sort of like kept the valve open,
like a jaw.
- You know that one that goes like, woosh, pop.
Woosh, pop. - Whilst...
- Yeah, whilst...
- And it kept it at the whoosh, not the pop.
- (laughs) Whilst the paper also in the toilet.
So he had to fish the toilet paper roll
out of the toilet,
but then the stick is stuck in there.
And he's like, "What do I do?
Do I try and get it out,
and put my hand like, under water,
or do I..."
- He just went for the flush.
He went for the flush.
He wasn't gonna put his hand down there.
So he went for the flush.
- So.
(buzzing)
Boom!
- Like it came the other way.
Instead of the...
Like...
And not even his.
Like, the person before him.
Like it came upwards.
And it's like, little flecks,
little particles all on the walls and like...
And then 'cause he was gone
for half an hour.
And what he was doing, he was cleaning the walls
with little pieces of tissue.
- He thought he escaped it all.
However, when he'd arrived back to his seat,
there was still a piece sitting on his leg.
- There was still a little doods on his legs.
Little doodle dangle berries.
(laughing)
(relaxing music)
- Thanks for watching guys, see you next time.
We're Triple One.
- Yeah. - Woo!
(Relaxing music)
